Hercules Capital Thoughts?

Hey everyone,

Thought on Hercules Capital? I have come across mixed reviews, but wondering if anyone has thoughts on their work experience, exits opps, etc. I tried doing LinkedIn searches, but cannot really find people who previously worked there and where they are now.

Any advice/thoughts would be greatly appreciated!
